Our editorial take

Coriolis is a solid pick for expats wanting affordable SIM-only plans with the option to visit a physical shop — their 200+ boutiques are a genuine advantage. The catch: they run on SFR's network, so you're paying MVNO margins for coverage you could get cheaper direct from RED by SFR. Worth comparing their latest promotions before committing.
